You’ve heard it before, “lift weights and you’ll avoid injury!”.
Today, you’re going to make your physical therapist proud. This program is designed to help the runner prioritize strength training. Strength training minimizes injury risk, strengthens weak muscles and joints, and helps aid in faster recovery so you never have to stop doing the sport you love. This program is meant to be done in conjunction with your own running program.
PROGRAM INCLUDES:
- CALENDAR OF WORKOUTS
- THREE PHASES OF STRENGTH TRAINING; 1-2 STRENGTH WORKOUTS PER WEEK FOR 9 WEEKS
- PERFORMANCE NUTRITION GUIDE
- YOUTUBE LINKS FOR *MOST* OF THE EXERCISES
*Fit + Fearless YouTube is growing! Not all of the exercises in the program have videos quite yet, but if you have questions regarding an exercise, email amanda@fitandfearlessamanda.com for personal guidance.
This program is intended to be done while running or training for your race. You do not need to be training for a race to run this program. If you are currently training for a race, be sure to taper your strength training (weights being lifted, sets being performed, etc) with your running too. I am more than happy to chat on the phone with you on how to make this work for your training.
